Yes, and what was that about? I have great
admiration for Asimov in many ways, but his
mentioning his children in print as he does
goes beyond bad taste. Everything he ever
says about his daughter is good and wonderful,
but everything about his son is negative. The
poor Asimov Jr. hasnt a chance, with his famous
father running him down at every opportunity.
He would need to change his last name just to
get someone to wait on him at the local burger
stand.

Does anyone know Asimov family enough to offer
an insight into IA's scandalous behavior? spike
